Said when they were brought to the Siletz reservation some fiftv years ago they numbered about hree thousand, the Alseas alone numbering five hundred. Now they were reduced to less than four hundred. They were forced from their freedom, happiness and un restrained live3 of their own country and placed upon a small reserva tion, subjecting them to the white man's fare and his diseases which has destroyed nearly all their peo ple.
